Whiteboards: Who Knew That This Could Get Families Back Into Their Homes?

It's staggering to think that to this day, we're STILL working hard all over the nation to get families back into New Orleans after the dreaded disaster that was Hurricane Katrina. Thankfully, the automotive industry, namely Toyota, has the goods on how to help make that happen: whiteboards.

Organizing all the information — from where the families currently are located around the U.S., to percentages, resources, allocation and timelines — that's what it takes to make things happen when it comes to rebuilding homes.

It just so happens that whiteboards do that EXTREMELY well.

Wow, who knew? The #automotive industry delivers for a reason. And they certainly don't need too much high-tech to get it done. Sometimes a little elbow grease and numbers make all the difference.﻿

Think about it: you're driving a car 50 miles an hour, and the manufacturer responsible for the build of it better have the goods on the stamp of approval.

Parts better work. Warranty's good. You shouldn't have to have a belt replaced a few dozen times a week. It's not like you're driving a shoddy cardboard box from work to home. The quality control expert is a staple of the #automotive industry, and you can only imagine just how much better the #REALESTATE industry would be with that level of prestige and excellence.

So it makes sense that Toyota would make such a difference with, say, the St. Bernard Project to bring thousands of families back home to New Orleans only just over a decade after Hurricane Katrina hit. You see? Efficiency, quality control, all of that — they do make a difference.﻿
